Fish compatiable with Dinosaur Bichir?

I got a tank for my birthday and didn't tell my parents that I wanted to keep the Bichir solo. I'm worried that if I keep the Bichir with other fish as my parents suggest, it'll devour the. So to keep from saying "100 dollar tank for one fish.." I need to know which fish won't fight with the Dinosaur.

    I'll tell you what I keep with mine. He's in a 55 witha 14 inch Clown Knifefish, and 8 inch Chocholate Cichlid, A 5 inch Synodonits Catfish, a 9 inch Prochilodus insignis, and 3 large Rainbow Cichlids. Nobody bothers anyone. You can keep Bichirs with any cichlids that aren't super aggressive, and most fish that are too big for them to eat.
